"Roman soldier FN_2 from Monachium dated to ca. 300-500 CE plots in the PCA just like Republican Romans several centuries before him." I am interested in seeing how close the G-L42 300 AD Roman soldier sample FN_2 plots to a G-CTS4803 400-600 AD Late Antiquity Crypta Balbi sample R108

I read in an online group that there is an Iron Age G2a sample from near Rome (fingers crossed for it being an L497)...

It is possible L497 came from the Cucuteni-Trypillian culture, I am just saying that the sample you referenced was false so not a good one to point to. It's not a matter of purity standards because the dating didn't make sense either as it was from 3,916-2,936 BC and L42 didn't even form until...

Maciamo made that statement when a paper showed a G-L42 Trypillian outlier in Ukraine but that sample was removed probably due to contamination. So the oldest L497 we have is a Baden sample from Hungary dating to 3,300 BC. And the Moldova “hotspot” is from a couple of 70 samples being L497, I...

Why do you think L497 is originally from Romania? The oldest L497 ancient sample dated to 3,300-2,850 BC is from Budakalász-Luppa csárda Hungary. We thought a L42 was found from the Cucuteni-Trypillian culture in Ukraine, but it was removed from the paper. There is a current "hotspot" around...

It's an interesting thought and really comes down to if the L497's were assimilated vs massacred by the R1b invaders. We have an idea that L497 or equivalent subclades left Anatolia around 7,000 BC and were a main haplogroup of the Old Europe Neolithic Vinca and then Chalcolithic Baden culture...

A scenario where IE Bronze Age R1b invaders massacred the G2a's may only apply who were part of the earlier migrations from Anatolian where the L497 subclade who had a "late start" up the Balkans and the Danubian route were the exception. A clue in favor of the assimilation in my opinion is that...
